Details

This indispensable Handbook examines the interface of competition policy, competition law and industrial economics.

The book aims to further our understanding of how economic reasoning and legal expertise complement each other in defining the fundamental issues and principles in competition policy. In specially commissioned chapters the book provides a scholarly review of economic theory, empirical evidence and standards of legal evaluation with respect to monopolization of markets, exploitation of market power and mergers, among other issues.

The International Handbook of Competition – Second Edition will be accessible to a wide audience including students of economics and law, public administrators, lawyers, consultants, and business executives.
